Can someone explain me the difference between the OS used for the VSP and ERS series switches.

Are both the devices using same ?

Name of the OS used bu the VSP and ERS switches ?

EOS/EOL for the operating system used by the above devices ?

Any vendor specific Hardening/ Security guidelines ?

Thanks in advance 🙂

Yes ERS 4800 also runs on BOSS but the software is different as compared to ERS49/5900

[jhunjhun]

Do ERS 4800 Series switches to run on BOSS  ? how can rectify the OS details for these devices ?

VSP devices run on VOSS (VSP Operating System Software) whereas ERS devices (4900/5900) runs on BOSS (Baystack Operating System Software) and no, they are not the same. The command syntax is completely different.

Check this link for EoS/EoL of these OS
